Blah blah blah 54 is up
-
finally we rattled off some picks
-
I think what happened is Toronto placed him on Release Waivers. This is actually weird. Normally when a player like Gage is waived it's for the purpose of removing him from the 40 man roster and if he isn't claimed he can go to the minors. Or, removing a player without options from the 26 man roster to demote them. But Release Waivers also exists. Normally you only see this when a player has a contract the organization is trying to shed. Or when a player has kicked around the league a lot without getting an extended opportunity. I guess Gage is thirty years old so this makes sense. I bet Gage did have an offer from a foreign club and he indicated that he would prefer to take it than go to AAA. Toronto obliged. But they can't just outright release him, they have to use Release Waivers. Gage would have had the right to reject the Astros claim and be a free agent instead, if he wanted. Houston convinced him to stick with them. Maybe they talked up his MLB path to playing time. So, just some semantics on the announcement. From Toronto's perspective they did "release" him.

well then.

i wonder who greenwood wants and traded up for...
-
Eze takes Norbs safe pick but honestly not even a bad pick at 1-5
-
Glad you're not dead. Honestly, still a few names left that are basically the same as many of the players taken so far so maybe you'll end up losing nothing.

decades?

He said "I’m working the tournament " RE: the waste management golf tournament?
-
He was literally logged in and he posted in the chat while pick 3 happened. He is either dead or immediately got blackout drunk
-
We had this date scheduled for weeks. Not that hard to set auto-draft on or leave one pick with someone if you have something going on. I can't unilaterally force the draft to pause for Eze's benefit. That being said, if anyone on the clock wants to be a "good samaritan" and intentionally let a few hours tick by so he gets more grace, I am not socially opposed to that. jaysblue is up at 1-15 anyway so Eze probably has until 5 PM today to still get a top 15 prospect.

Jim took Emmanuel Rodriguez 7th in this draft and the DDL draft. Doubling down. I was watching some video.. he is remarkably quiet at the plate. Makes you think of Juan Soto, except for the K rate. Maybe he will be like... Juan Soto if he hit .237 instead of .287
-
For the record: Per our rules, Eze can still pick whenever he shows up. His pick would be official as of the time he posts it here or in the chat. One of the commissioners will just manually add the player to his team.
-
Endy was your guy I presume?
-
Speedy up
-
It will skip his pick He was online when pick 3 happened. I toggled on auto draft for him to see if he set a queue, thinking maybe fantrax f***ed him but no it just auto picked an MLB player so he probably didn't set a queue.
-
Looks like Eze might blow pick 1-5. I dunno...
-
Yeah I'm sure the meathead fans enjoyed watching nothing happen for the last two minutes of the Superbowl haha
-
lmao what a s***** sport
-
Well this isn't ideal Is there a setting we the commissioners need to toggle?
-
It didn't work for featherdick either It must have reset autopick settings when the draft began
-
2.18 million dollars for Nick Nice consolation prize
-
And we are offfff
-
Not gonna start it early. Just queue up and set auto draft please if you have a high pick and like football for some dumb ass reason and also can't just pick on your phone like a normal person
-
Social events suck though
